[@johnhalchishick7094]

I did mine in the truck, two things that help.Getting the pins to fit in good.I used a broom handle and pushed slowly on the brake keep it pushed down.This pushed those two pins forward.Simple to just drop into place.Second person on the brake pedal best way.Oh release the brake slowly so you can make sure the pins and that grove they sit in stay in place.Second thing is getting the spring and gasket all put back together.That star at the end ,that your spring rod goes through.That is easy to remove,be careful just pry it out of it's grove.Do it from the back after you have separated the piston and spring.Dont try and take it before separating unit.Put the unit back together with out the spring or star.Makes putting it together much easier.Once everything back together slide the spring in from the back.Line the spring rod up and push on the star.I use a socket on a extension.Push on the star until it sits in it's retaining grove.Doesnt take much effort to push it in.

[@Mr831bong]

Mine is leaking as well but the problems I’m having is with the stability control the brakes lock up you think that the leaking hydroboost is my problem ?

[@notsofast2325]

The power steering pump and brake system is tied together as you may know. As you press on the brake your creating pressure within the unit, if there is lack of pressure because of the leak yes your system will not function properly and your brake system and your stability will try to overcompensate it. I'm not a professional by any mean. But i can tell you this ,if it is leaking dont drive it , especially if your towing something. The fix is a cheap fix. Yes it takes time and yes you'll be on your back . But once your done you save $500 to $950 in repairs, and a sense of satisfaction that you were able to do this. Good Luck

[@papergatorzfedducca7998]

Do you think the master cylinder will cause all 4 brakes to slightly drag? I can release each one when I open the bleeder screw. Once I drive it for about 3-7 minutes it starts back dragging. I say slightly dragging because I can jack up the truck and turn them by hand with a lot of force. No leaks on the master cylinder or hydro boost. I’ve greased slider pins, bleeding the brakes 3 times, topped off the fluid on both power steering and brake fluid. Power steering is making a whining noise. It’s a 2004 Suburban with hydro boost system. Please help.

whining noise like you described is typical of low power steering fluid. In my experience, the noise goes away when you fill the pump.

Why not leave the entire hydro booster connected to the firewall and just remove the ebolts and separate the Hydro booster while it’s still connected to the firewall. Isn’t that more efficient on time. Is that possible?

[@notsofast2325]

Thank you, So typically what I do is Pull the bad Part get a new one and install it. But when I got to the part store I found out what it cost they're expensive. even on eBay an Amazon they cost a lot. I don't know about you but I love my money. So I asked around if these can be rebuilt no one could tell me if they sold a rebuild kit and no one knew how to rebuild one. further than just outright buying one. so I did some research and found they rebuild kit. then I went on KZbin to see if I can find someone that has rebuilt one before. I did find some but they were poorly done so I decided to make a KZbin video on this subject. if I known what I know now I probably would have attempted 2 remove only the what part like you suggested. But for me it was too late plus I didn't know what it took to rebuild one. You can try and let us know how it turned out. I hope I don't have to do this again it was kind of a pain but doable. I kept my eye on the prize cuz I knew I would be saving big money if I did it myself.

You can if you want to. For me I wanted to inspect the back part of the booster. Plus for me it was easy to pull the back part out. If you watch the video you can see there are springs and the figure 8 gasket, internal parts that have to go in a certain way. If you can do this with it bolted on, more power to you go for it. Good luck. Thank for stopping by.

You can ,be super careful taking it apart.There is a small check valve that will shoot out in pieces if any pressure is left in the unit.Getting the inner seal in place with out pinching it going back together can be difficult.First attempt leaked from that seal getting pinched.

If I did exactly what you did, I won’t have to bleed the brake lines?

[@notsofast2325]

The brake lines do not connect to the hydro booster.
